Most excellent fun. I worked as the architect for a sophisicated data over terrestrial TV signal system. We developed both a basic unidirectional "modem" for carrying data to end-users, and a leading edge "interactive TV" set top box that had all the features of current set top boxes (it could execute a java-style byte code based on an event-driven.

Went to Zurich to develop a prototype MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) test system based on QPSX hardware for the Telecom '91 exhbition in Geneva and stayed for two years after the prototype confirmed the feasibility of the architecture of a distributed test system. Eventually the product developed was one of the most sophisticated test systems for.

One of the founders. We had fun for a while. Developed telco systems, provided contract engineering services in electonic and software product development market.
